KIEV (Reuters) - Ukraine's Fuel and Energy Minister Yuri Prodan said on Sunday he expected Ukraine would pay Russia $386-$387 per 1,000 cubic metres of gas in the second quarter of this year, citing a deal with Russia which the Kremlin has recently denounced.
In December, Russia agreed to reduce gas prices for Kiev by about a third to $268.50 per 1,000 cubic metres as of January 2014, but the deal allowed for the price to be revised quarterly and earlier in March Prodan said Russia's Gazprom was likely to increase the price to $368.5 (223.48 pounds).
